I am 23 weeks

with DC #5. I have an itchy neck, front and back. I've tried lotion but it doesn't seem to help. Sometimes it even feels kinda prickly. I've never had this before, has anyone else experienced this? Just wondering if I should worry!! Thanks!

It could be a heat rash. Is there a rash or is it just itchy? I had heat rash on my legs for a few weeks when I was pg, then it went away.

I would contact your ob if this persists. A friend on another had a condition where she itched and it something serious, but I cannot remember the name of it. I don't want to scare you, but if it persists more than a few days, tell your ob, ok? Hugs......
